At the Beautiful Minds Drama Club, acting and drama has offered our autistic members a powerful way to express themselves, build social connections, and gain confidence in navigating the complexities of society. By engaging in role-playing and scripted performance, they have the opportunity to explore different perspectives, practice emotional expression, and understand social cues in a controlled environment. Drama can also provide a sense of belonging, as it encourages collaboration with peers, fosters empathy, and promotes communication skills. As they develop these abilities, autistic individuals may find it easier to engage in everyday interactions, understand social dynamics, and carve out a meaningful place for themselves in the broader community. Ultimately, acting can be a transformative tool, helping autistic people bridge the gap between their inner worlds and the external social landscape.
Are there any neurodivergent/autistic musicians out there? We need you for future shows.
I might have to cancel tomorrow’s drama club. If you are interested in joining next week please let me know.
Hi, just to let you know our next session is on Monday 13th January. Parents/carers are welcome to stay, watch or take part if they want to.
I would like to start a Beautiful Minds Drama Club for autistic teenagers. It would be on a Saturday afternoon. It would help to know how many would be interested in being involved. If I have a enough people interested I will set it up. Contact info@13ththeatreco.co.uk if interested. Parents/carers welcome to attend.
